of

Of stolen gain, which things most horrid are;

Have they, nor vile and hateful lust of males.

For slow is the whole race of human kind

To believe. But when judgment of the world

Of the world, from the time the God of heaven

Of the world, from the time the God of heaven

Dark night shall come at the mid hour of day

And works of men headlong; and from the deep

They shall peer out the islands of the Sea.

Of Tigris. And the Persian power shall be

One generation of most prosperous rule.

As men shall wish away--the din of war,

And overthrow of towers and waste of cities,

And overthrow of towers and waste of cities,

And unto Egypt, land of many furrows,

And he shall walk the wet paths of the deep,

Of lofty summit; him a fugitive

Of powerful fire set all aflame while Etna

And fighting make an end of many men;

But, when the race of mortal men shall come

Shall all into the land of Hellas flee.

Of Delos shall all be invisible.

When sometime the dark water of the sea

Of Patara for its impieties.

To Solyma an evil blast of war

Of matricide, and many other things,

And out of Syria shall come Rome's foremost man,

Who having burned the temple of Solyma,

And having slaughtered many of the Jews,

But when from deep cleft of Italian land

Then know the anger of the God of heaven,

Then know the anger of the God of heaven,

The nation of the pious. And then strife

Awakened of war shall come to the West,

Shall also come the fugitive of Rome,

Because of thine own follies thou shalt fall.

Shall a broad wave of the sea cover, thee

And then there shall be an excess of war.

And reckless evil deeds, and of the pious

The race of men by conflagration great.

But with a fondness for strange lack of sense

And destroy the whole race of men, and all

The bones and ashes of men God himself

Shall he again hide under mounds of earth

BUT come, now, hear of me the mournful time

Of sons of Latium. And first of all,

Of sons of Latium. And first of all,

Of sons of Latium. And first of all,

After the kings of Egypt were destroyed

For Philip a dead body (not of Zeus,

Of Ammon not true things were prophesied),

And after that one of the race and blood

Of king Assaracus, who came from Troy,

Even he who cleft the violence of fire,

The children of the beast that feeds on sheep,

Twice ten with the first letter of his name;

And he shall have the initial sign of ten;

By reason of the cowardice of rulers

By reason of the cowardice of rulers

And of a woman unenslaved who falls

And of a river the beloved name,

Of the number three. And then shall be a lord

An end of his own race and stir all things,

And he shall cleave the mountain of two seas

And sprinkle it with gore; but out of sight

Of pious men shall come, whom seven times ten

Whom the first letter of three hundred proves,

A ruler, of the initial sign of four,

A ruler, of the initial sign of four,

Of the number fifty. Next, succeeding him

Who has the first mark of the initial sign

Into the strife of battle pressing on,

But dust that of Nemea's flower has name,

And unto him shall be the name of a sea;

And he shall be a man the best of all

Thou best of all, above all, dark-haired one,

Sister of Isis, to lay up in heart

Of oracles. First Maenades shall dart

Of Egypt even to sixteen cubits deep;

For mortals; and the pleasure of the land

Shall be still and the glory of her face.

For of old ruling mightily the land

Thou shalt become poor, so that out of heaven

"O mighty Memphis, who didst boast of old

Full of pain and all-hapless, so that thou

Of the immortal Thunderer in heaven,

Worshiping stones and beasts instead of God,

Of their own labors and presumptuous thoughts

Did men receive gods made of wood and stone

And smitten is the hall of Heracles

(Of cities) war shall not leave, nor (plague) . . .

A long age, and the day of thy return . . .

By sacred altars one of barbarous mind,

Strong, full of blood and raging senselessly,

All Asia shall wail on account of gifts

The height of power and odious reverence,

Even of the blessed. And a certain king

The painful rule of Egypt over many?

Go to the East, to races of the Persians

The river of Euphrates shall bring on
